LAHORE: YouTuber Rajab Butt, along with seven others, has been booked for allegedly giving out threats on TikTok and showing up at the doorstep of a citizen with a gun.

The case was registered on a complaint by social media artist Umer Fayyaz, who claimed that Rajab Butt, Mann Dogar, and Haider Shah showed up at his home, along with some goons, and threatened him.

Mann Dogar supposedly shouted obscenities and threatened Umer while going on a TikTok Live, which Fayyaz regarded as an invasion of his dignity.

It’s not the first trouble Rajab Butt has been in. Last time, a case was registered against him in Karachi on account of content that allegedly offended Namaz and stirred religious sentiments.

The court directed the police to take action after concluding arguments; the complainant, Riaz Ali, called on the police quite firmly to set a precedent whereby no other social media stars might hurl abuses against Islamic values or personalities.
